  BacktestTool - batch backtest, import and strategy parameters optimalization
Posted by: xFFFFF - 02-27-2018, 12:22 AM - Forum: Third Party Software - Replies (106)

I present Gekko's BacktestTool. Script written in Perl.

How it's work?
The tool allows you to perform multiple backtests on previously defined multiple pairs, strategies and candleSize. All you have to do is enter your variables into the configuration file and run the program. Then BacktestTool will perform all the tasks you have ordered. Results are printed as terminal output and saved in csv file. Example of csv file is here: https://github.com/xFFFFF/Gekko-Strategi...tabase.csv

Features

- Test multiple candleSize, strategies and mulitple pairs on one run
- Start multiple PaperTraders
- Multiple datasets import
- Backtests results are exported to CSV file
- Multithreading - in contrast to raw Gekko backtest this tool uses 100% of your processor
- Extended statistics

DEMO 
Start backtests
[Image: backtest.gif]

All results are exported to CSV file (You can open it in Excel or LibreOffice Calc)
[Image: csv.gif]

Installation
1. Clone git https://github.com/xFFFFF/GekkoBacktestTool.git
2. Copy files to Gekko's main directory
3. Install dependies by command: 

Code:
$ sudo cpan install Parallel::ForkManager Time::ParseDate Time::Elapsed Getopt::Long List::MoreUtils File::chdir Statistics::Basic DBI

4. Edit backtest-config.pl in text editor.

Run
for backtest: 

Code:
$ perl backtest.pl 

For import: 

Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -i 

For start multiple paperTraders: 

Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -p

Available commands:
Code:
usage: perl backtest.pl
To run backtests machine

usage: perl backtest.pl [parameter] [optional parameter]
Parameters:
 -i, --import     - Import new datasets
 -g, --paper     - Start multiple sessions of PaperTrader
 -v, --convert     - Convert TOML file to Gekko's CLI config format, ex: backtest.pl -v MACD.toml
 
Optional parameters:
 -c, --config         - BacktestTool config file. Default is backtest-config.pl
 -s, --strat STRATEGY_NAME - Define strategies for backtests. You can add multiple strategies seperated by commas example: backtest.pl --strat=MACD,CCI
 -p, --pair PAIR     - Define pairs to backtest in exchange:currency:asset format ex: backtest.pl --p bitfinex:USD:AVT. You can add multiple pairs seperated by commas.
 -p exchange:ALL     - Perform action on all available pairs. Other usage: exchange:USD:ALL to perform action for all USD pairs.
 -n, --candle CANDLE     - Define candleSize and warmup period for backtest in candleSize:warmup format, ex: backtest.pl -n 5:144,10:73. You can add multiple values seperated by commas.
 -f, --from
 -f last        - Start import from last candle available in DB. If pair not exist in DB then start from 24h ago.
 -t, --to         - Time range for backtest datasets or import. Example: backtest.pl --from="2018-01-01 09:10" --to="2018-01-05 12:23"
 -t now        - 'now' is current time in GMT.
 -o, --output FILENAME - CSV file name.

Example usage:
Backtests of all available pairs for Binance Exchange in Gekko's scan datarange mode:
Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -p binance:ALL`

Backtest on all pairs and strategies defined in backtest-config.pl with candles 5, 10, 20, 40 and 12 hours warmup period:
Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -n 5:144,10:73,20:36,40:15`

Import all new candles for all BNB pairs:
Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -i -p binance:BNB:ALL -f last -t now`

Import all candles for pairs defined in backtest-config.pl from 2017-01-02 to now:
Code:
$ perl backtest.pl -i -f 2017-01-02 -t now`

  Hacking extra functionality into telegram plugin
Posted by: zappra - 02-26-2018, 08:56 PM - Forum: Feature Requests - No Replies

Hey,

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but...

I've got gekko and telegram talking to each other. The telegram plugin has the ability to respond to commands. I'd like to add some new commands and I'd like the ability to send these commands directly to the currently active trader and strategy.

This doesn't have to be elegant! Have already made some hacks to provide extra functionality but am a bit lost on how to get hold of the trader and strategy from within the telegram plugin.

Thanks!

Best

  Slow Data Imports
Posted by: xBIGx - 02-26-2018, 08:47 PM - Forum: GDAX - No Replies

Anyone having really slow data imports from GDAX? Getting 3 months of data is like 100x slower than Poloniex. Would it be better if we just shared?

Gentlement, can I find a developer on this forum who could modify a custom strategy for me so it can:
1) log quotes in real-time into a specified csv file
2) read signals from a specified csv file for executing trades

Thanks!

  [Bounty] Hiring someone to write a simple Strategy
Posted by: spellfire - 02-24-2018, 12:42 PM - Forum: Strategy Development - Replies (19)

Hello,
my developer skills are very (VERY) limited so I would like to hire someone to develope the strategy I am using "manually" at the moment.
It's not sophisticated , fancy or by any means new, it's the classic grid trading from forex markets

Basically you setup a price and put x limit-stop margin orders higher and lower than the set price, then when orders get filled  the script replace that order (a buy with a sell a sell with a buy)

As I said it's not AI , doesn't use any indicators , doesn't get you rich quickly...but it 's perfect for me :-)
Anyone willing to help with this for a price?


Thanks


  Heikin Ashi
Posted by: fo0man - 02-23-2018, 11:42 PM - Forum: Guides - Replies (5)

I found Gekko a few days ago and have been trying out some different strategies. One of the things I was experimenting with is Heikin Ashi candles so. For anyone wanting to use HA candles here's how I'm doing it.


Code:
var _ = require('lodash');

var strat = {
...

  heikenAshi: function(candle) {
    return {
      close: (candle.open + candle.close + candle.high + candle.low) / 4,
      open: (this.previousCandle.open + this.previousCandle.close) / 2,
      high: _.max([candle.high, candle.open, candle.close]),
      low: _.min([candle.low, candle.open, candle.close])
    };
  },

  update: function () {
    if (this.previousCandle) {
      this.heikenCandle = this.heikenAshi(this.candle);
    }

    this.previousCandle = this.candle;
  },

...
}

What does that mean in the console output.
i am running gekko for days now with marketwatchers and traders and from time to time this output pops up.
